At New Song we believe that the Gospel isn’t good advice about what God expects from us; the Gospel is the Good News of what God has done for us in Jesus our Mediator, Advocate, Saviour and Friend. So every Sunday we proclaim the life-giving Word of Jesus through Scripture readings and through biblically-faithful, applicable preaching.

Easter Sunday: Making Sense of Jesus’ Resurrection (Luke 24:1-12) If there’s one claim at the very centre of Christianity (without which it wouldn’t be Christianity) it’s this: Jesus who died rose to life again.

James: The Failure of Greed vs the Freedom of Generosity (5:1-6) Wealth promises freedom: security, assurance, abundance and so much more. But does it deliver? Greed, our inordinate desire to accumulate wealth, James understands, ultimately fails us: it condemns us, it corrupts us and it costs us.

James: Faith That Works (2:14-26) Isn’t works based faith anti-gospel? James shows us it’s not; if you find your grounding in the cross of Christ. He gives practical and Old Testament examples to drill his point home. Life changing faith is a visible faith. Matthew Usherwood
